NEW MUSIC | SUNSET CITIES (SO.CRATES, NELSON DIALECT & JACE XL) ‘OH BABY’

By Rishma • On What is New ,

Sun­set Cit­ies is a col­lab­or­at­ive pro­ject that com­bines the cre­at­ive forces of MC’s Nel­son Dia­lect and Cazeaux O.S.L.O. over the pro­duc­tion of Skomes and Alni­tak Kid.  “Oh Baby” is a nod to the grandeur of the Mo-town sound made for the back seat of your car when you are with­in love and the lonely corner of a bar when you are out of love.
Oh Baby!” Call it out when you are high on love. “Oh Baby!” cry it out when that same love gets you low.
Over the soul­ful, trunk rat­tling pro­duc­tion of Mel­bourne beat-maker Skomes, rapper/poets Nel­son Dia­lect and Cazeaux O.S.L.O. weigh in on their per­spect­ive of love and loss. This track high­lights the lyr­ic­al heavy­weights’ mas­tery of their indi­vidu­al cadence and sound and sim­ul­tan­eously solid­i­fies their uni­on on record as a super­group com­fort­able with the allure of boom bap basics and the chal­lenge of great storytelling.
The one and only Jace XL (Hiatus Kaiyote, Rhythm Sec­tion Records) brings this track home with a single ques­tion. “Do you love now love?” Do you?
In the age of all things aimed toward instant grat­i­fic­a­tion, “Oh Baby!” is both a love and anti-love anthem sent from the heart by two blues­men of the new century.
